🎢 An actually interactive accessibility workshop about motion sickness
We show you the problem and current solutions, let's see if we find even better ones.
Description:
Join us for an engaging workshop where we’ll explore accessibility beyond screen readers and alternative inputs. We’ll dive into the super specific problem of motion sickness and discover how addressing it will shape your thinking patterns for more inclusive product decisions.
Despite the tummy-turning title, this hands-on workshop is a lot of fun. There’s a short introduction to the world of motion sensitivities, the remaining 85% of the workshop is pure interaction. If attendees share firsthand motion sickness experiences (spoiler: they always do!), accessibility becomes tangible. Go to the office on Monday, give your colleagues of all disciplines the tl;dr and scroll through your website or app together to see where it might trip affected people. Then collectively implement solutions.
Note: The maximum number of participants is 18 persons, first-come-first-serve basis. It would be cool if ~5 people bring their own laptops to try and demo things, but an own device is not required.
Target audience: It takes the whole team to make products truly accessible, so every role is needed :)

Even though I fell in love with web development as soon as a teen, it took me a decade long detour through humanities to end up working professionally in the field.
What never left me was the passion for websites that can be enjoyed by everyone. We can't have the magic of the early 2000s web, if we exclude a huge part of the public by inaccessible design, bloated websites that don't run on old hardware and walled gardens.
I try to learn about all things that make websites more accessible and to discuss it with others, so that we can all build a better, more inclusive web.
